Factual error: In the scene where the kidnapper is talking to his brother from prison, the payphone cord is too long for a prison payphone. Prisons use a short cord to prevent inmates from strangling someone.

Factual error: 1-11: I Married a Mind Reader. A nitpicking mistake, but on the set of "I Married a Mind Reader", the front door is a modern steel design. Back in the 60's, front doors were almost always wood (steel doors weren't available until the 1970's or 80's), and the window design would have been larger on a 1960's fan-window wooden door.

Revealing: In the first scene of episode 1-15: "Penny for Your Thoughts," the clock shows an impossible configuration. The hour hand is slightly before the five, and the minute hand is between one and two. If it's about seven minutes after the hour, the hour hand should be slightly past one of the other numbers, not slightly before it.

Continuity: "Heads Will Roll": When Allison meets P.D. on the sidewalk in the rain, when she gets out of her car, the windshield wipers are still running. When you see her car in the background, they are not running and she never shut them off.

Continuity: In Episode 411, "Lady Killen": When Lee Scanlon is in Sensai and the janitor walks him to the kitchen, the doors are push-through doors with no handles on them and with circular windows in them. But when they walk through, the doors are not push-through any more, but have handles on the one side they opened with, and no windows.

Continuity: In "Pain Killer", when Allison is in the shower, she has total use of her right arm, hand, wrist and fingers, where in all scenes before and after she holds her right hand and fingers close to her chest and doesn't move her fingers and hand freely.

Continuity: Episode 6.4, Libra Slayer: In the opening scene, in the hospital, the man leans over the dying patient to hear what he has to say. His cheek is almost touching the patient's lips. Then the angle changes and their faces are suddenly quite far apart.

Lucky (season 1, episode 8)

⇑
⇓

Other: In the two scenes that occur at Lucky's base in Iraq, it is quite obvious the writers did not do much research about the Army in Iraq now, or the Army in general. Alcohol is not allowed on any US base anywhere in the Middle East during the current conflict, and this is true for all branches of the military. Even if Lucky did manage to procure contraband alcohol, he would not drink it openly, because an MP would arrest him within minutes. If he appeared in his Sergeant's tent drunk, he would be arrested, and severely disciplined, probably demoted. No one on a US base would be known as a habitual drunk, because anyone found drunk more than once would be either sent back to the states for rehab, or dishonorably discharged. Also, in the US Army, Sergeants are never addressed as "Sir." This is one of the very first things a new recruit learns at Basic Training, and it is drilled into him. It is extraordinarily unlikely that a soldier would slip up and call a sergeant "Sir" once, let alone repeatedly, as Lucky's buddy does. After the first time, the Sergeant would correct him.

Time Out of Mind (season 2, episode 3)

⇓

Continuity: Maggie says she was born in 1959, but her mother was committed to the asylum in November 1958, when her daughter was eight months old.

Edit

Judge, Jury & Executioner (season 2, episode 7)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: At the beginning of the scene where Allison and D.A. Devalos are talking right outside his office, the office door is ajar. During the scene it's closed, and by the end, it's ajar again. Neither character touched the door.

Edit

Still Life (season 2, episode 9)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: At the beginning of the episode, Van Gogh starts painting blue circles "on" our TV screen (this is the 3D episode). The three circles are big and touch each other. Next shot, seen from a standard point of view, you see him getting back up and the canvas is still on the floor: the circles are smaller and quite far apart.

Continuity: In the scene where the DA and the deputy mayor are talking outside the DA's office (after she is found sitting in his office with the artist's dad), the deputy mayor closes the door when they exit the office. In the following conversation, the door is ajar.

The Reckoning (season 2, episode 10)

⇑
⇓

Revealing: When Allison is "seeing" the Massey house going up in flames, James flinches when the painting falls off the wall behind him, even though it is only supposed to be happening in Allison's vision.

Wicked Game (1) (season 4, episode 9)

⇑
⇓

Plot hole: It seems strange why Alison and Cynthia Keener don't raise any suspicion with Wheeler's mother after rescuing her daughter Joanna. After Keener finds her and the other missing girl, she says to Alison that the kidnapper had taken them and had been torturing and abusing them for a number of days. However when Alison and Cynthia go to talk with Wheeler's mother about the old kidnapping case (before the two were rescued) the mother states that she has never been kidnapped and had even saw her yesterday. While the mother might not have been aware of her daughter's kidnapping, wouldn't she have been a little perplexed to have found her daughter had been kidnapped and tortured during days she had seen her. Even if this was something that was not shown, why wouldn't Alison and Cynthia (someone who is well trained in kidnappings) find the mother's statement combined with the kidnapping a bit strange.

...About Last Night (season 5, episode 4)

⇑
⇓

Plot hole: In this episode, the Duboises make such a big deal about Ariel being old enough to finally learn to drive. However, two episodes previously ("Things to Do in Phoenix When You're Dead") Ariel drove herself to school and Joe complimented her on her prowess.

Edit

All in the Family (season 5, episode 9)

⇑
⇓

Continuity: At the end when they are confronting Harmony, they pick up the water glass for DNA testing. In the next shot over her shoulder, the glass is still on the table.
